Flower power: tree flowering phenology as a settlement cue for migrating birds

Journal of Animal Ecology, 2008
1. Neotropical migrant birds show a clear preference for stopover habitats with ample food supplies; yet, the proximate cues underlying these decisions remain unclear. 2. For insectivorous migrants, cues associated with vegetative phenology (e.g. flowering, leaf flush, and leaf loss) may reliably predict the availability of herbivorous arthropods. Here

Terniopsis chanthaburiensis (Podostemaceae), a new record for China and its complete plastid genome

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The genus Terniopsis consists of plants that have not been thoroughly studied, with many species remaining taxonomically unresolved. In this study, Terniopsis chanthaburiensis is reported as a new record of China based on morphological traits. Then, we assembled and annotated its chloroplast genome based on genome skimming data.

Tetrataenium paikadae (Apiaceae), a new species from the Western Ghats, India

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
A new species, Tetrataenium paikadae C.Rekha, Manudev & Prasanth (Apiaceae), is described from the State of Kerala, India. The new species is characterised by its hirsute to hispid stems, broadly ovate or rounded leaflets, long petioles with hirsute leaf sheaths, tomentose rays, symmetric flowers, ovate‐lanceolate involucel bracteoles, and mericarp ...

Predicting reproductive phenology of wind-pollinated trees via PlanetScope time series

Science of Remote Sensing
Airborne pollen triggers allergic reactions, which can have public health consequences. Accurate airborne pollen concentration modeling and prediction rely on understanding plant reproductive phenology, particularly the timing of flowering and pollen ...

VARIATION IN THE FLOWERING PHENOLOGY OF AN EPIPHYTIC BROMELIAD ALONG AN ELEVATIONAL GRADIENT

Acta Biológica Colombiana, 2020
Elevational patterns in flowering phenology have been reported for trees, shrubs and herbs. However, for vascular epiphytes that rely on atmospheric sources for humidity and nutrients, and depend on phorophyte microhabitat, elevational patterns of ...

Reinstatement of the name Anisochilus eriocephalus Benth. (Lamiaceae) supported by micromorphological and molecular data

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
In 2019, A. J. Paton et al. proposed a new taxonomic combination, transferring Anisochilus carnosus (L.f.) Wall. ex Benth. to Coleus strobilifer (Benth.) A.J.Paton, and including Anisochilus eriocephalus Benth. within this broader circumscription.

Rediscovery of Passiflora clypeophylla (subgenus Decaloba): a highly threatened and narrow endemic species found within a karstic canyon in Guatemala

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Passiflora clypeophylla, an endemic species to the Guatemalan karstic forests last seen in 1889 and deemed extinct, was rediscovered in the Department of Alta Verapaz, east of Cobán. The species was known only from a single specimen hailed from the type locality, Rubel Cruz, where it has been found again. An additional location has been identified in a
